New Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser: “You have a mayor who hates guns”

“You have a mayor who hates guns,” new Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel
Bowser told a crowd at the St. Augustine Catholic Church last Tuesday.
The Washington Interfaith Network was gathered at the church to discuss a
number of different issues, including the city’s new gun carry law.
“If it was up to me, we wouldn’t have any handguns in the District of
Columbia,” the Washington Post quoted the mayor as saying. “I swear to
protect the Constitution and what the courts say, but I will do it in
the most restrictive way as possible.”
The mayor’s comments came after the D.C. city council finalized

several increased restrictions on where permit holders may carry
firearms. Among the restrictions is a ban against the legal carry of
firearms in places of worship unless the house of worship specifically
states otherwise.Keep on reading…
